They have shops in Washington, Utah and Colorado. They have warehouses scattered across the USA. Definitely give them a call, good guys to talk to, i have done a lot of business with them.

Jeeze man I never even thought about a wrap, but now I want one! Great Looking jeep!
Thanks man. Here's a video I just posted about how well the wrap protects the paint when taking it through the trails.

Youre right, I wouldn't recommend taking it through any kind of extreme terrain without a lift. I did take it off road and it was rubbing while stock height. I took it out again yesterday, first time since the lift and it was much better but still rubbed slightly

RC confirmed that the 3.5" lift will work on the Rubicon model. If that's the case, would the Rubicon ride higher than a Sport with their 3.5" lift?

Looking good, not a fan of the grill but it’s your truck and if you like it that’s all that matters.

Small world but I know you know two of my buddies. Norb and Brett. You did Brett’s Audi if I’m not mistaken. Norb did my Jeep.

The Rubicon doesn't actually ride higher...Not from my research. Only the fenders are placed higher than the other models.

...and comes equipped with larger tires. I noticed that too when I was at the dealership today.

Is there somewhere I can get lockers and a sway bar disconnect for the JT? I tried looking but my search wasn't successful.
The front seems to be good, it's only the rear, and is the picture where it's rubbing the opposing wheel is completely off the ground
I can't speak to the lockers, but I use the JKS quicker disconnects for the front sway bar on my 2018 JLU. Here's how front disconnects can reduce rear rub. In your pics, notice that your left rear tire was off of the ground while your front left tire still had space. Having a front disco, that front left tire would travel further up into the wheel well ... allowing the frame to level our better ... lowering that left rear tire and taking some pressure off of the right rear tire. It keeps your rig 'balanced' better.

The bump stops (just a sample linked) reduce travel rather than increasing travel like discos do. But, the bump stops would eliminate the rub. Whatever height bump stops were installed with your lift, increasing them by an inch would likely do the trick.

I installed 37's yesterday before receiving the 3.5" lift. Was totally ready to do some modifications but in the end it didn't need much. I removed the panel that goes just below the front indicator lights (actually like the look better now) and trimmed the front splash guards on each side about 1.5". I wanted to show and let people know that the Jeep rides and drives great without the lift. No rubbing with regular driving and very minor rubbing when I took it on the trail. It would only graze the fenders slightly when I pushed it. It'll sit much better once the lift goes on next week.

The wheels I'm running are Fuel Beast 17x10 -18
The tires are Dynapro M/T 37x12.5
Stock height Gladiator Sport
